Recombinant Human MAdCAM-1 (C-Fc)

Product Specifications

Background

Mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) is an approximately 60 kDa type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein. It is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule that belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily of proteins. The Ig domains of MAdCAM-1 are critical to alpha (4) beta (7) binding, and the mucin domain has activity in L Selectin binding. MAdCAM-1 expression is up-regulated by TNF-alpha and IL 1 beta. Mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule (MAdCAM-1) plays a pivotal role in T-lymphocyte homing to the gut. MAdCAM 1 expression is also dramatically increased in chronic inflammatory and disease states, including inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis), sclerosing cholangitis, and diabetes, and may play an important role in these conditions.
